Freshsales レビュー 

Not sure how this is better than a basic Excel spreadsheet. At least Excel would let me sort and filter my own accounts, contacts, etc. It's unwieldy and unintiutive.

We reported a Freshsales defect in 2025, and it remains unresolved. Despite months of correspondence, Freshworks has not provided a firm resolution date, a meaningful technical explanation, or a credible plan to fix the problem.
The response pattern has been consistently disappointing: apologize, claim the matter has been escalated, introduce another person or department, and then provide no substantive follow-up. More names are added, but nobody appears to take ownership and no solution is delivered.
The wider product experience is also concerning. Useful marketplace integrations appear limited, and there has been little visible development in the areas that matter to us. While competing CRMs are introducing practical AI integrations and expanding their ecosystems, Freshsales does not appear to be keeping pace. Our experience also raises doubts about whether existing functionality is being adequately maintained.
We continue paying for software with a known defect while receiving holding responses instead of measurable progress. Even basic questions, including what is blocking the fix, who is accountable, and when it will be resolved, remain unanswered.

I have been using Freshsales for a couple of years. Software is clunky but it is the cheapest I found to try CRM. However, I have now been waiting for over 2 weeks to have 2 users added (I made the mistake of paying an annual subscription), and apparently they cannot change from an annual subscription to a monthly one. This has been with the management team for a week and I have heard nothing back. If they can't be bothered with selling more users, I wonder what will happen if we have an issue.
Until now we hadn't needed much from CS, but it is clearly non existent.
I am now looking into moving to a more reliable flexible software, where we are not stuck for weeks trying to add more users.

I had been a Freshdesk customer for years and was disappointed by my recent experience.

On 17 June 2026, I requested cancellation of my subscription. Despite this, my credit card was charged for a renewal on 20 June 2026. When I requested a refund, I was informed that cancellations only take effect from the next renewal period and that the charge would not be reversed.

What I found particularly frustrating was that Freshworks later confirmed that my account was eligible to be moved to the Free Plan, which is all we require, yet the renewal charge remained in place.

As a long-term customer, I expected a more customer-focused approach when a cancellation request had already been submitted before the renewal charge was processed.

The support team was polite and responsive, but the billing policy and refusal to refund the renewal charge have left me with a poor impression of the company.

Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Freshdesk's billing practices.

scammers! stay away! they keep charging my credit card since 2 months and cant provide me with access to my account! password reset wont work! they keep charging since I cannot login to cancel my subscriptions!
I reported them to my bank for FRAUD! THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD STAY AWAY OR YOU LOOSE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!

Avoid this platform completely. If you value your data and access, this is not a safe choice.

Our dashboard suddenly stopped working, and it appears as if our data was lost or removed. Attempts to reach support via live chat were unsuccessful, as they stopped responding.

A complete waste of time setting everything up, only to lose access in the end. Not reliable and not suitable for any serious business.

The platform feels like a legacy system.
It is not intuitive, reporting is overly complicated, and working in it often creates friction instead of helping you move faster.

We also experienced issues with one of our module and resolving them was too difficult and too time-consuming.

What is especially disappointing is that even cancelling the account does not feel straightforward. Instead of a simple process, which reflects the same problems we experienced throughout the product.

You won't find any clear information online about 30-day cancellation policy (when requesting it), which makes the cancellation process even less transparent. We had to pay also for non-active account.

It was a frustrating experience not only as a customer using the product, but also as a customer trying to leave it.

Terrible experience. After a week and a half of being down and losing all data and email contact to customers. They are very nonchalant in saying that they have no ETA and they want to see how many people want to migrate their servers before we can even have an ETA.

Dont you ever think about using these cheaters and iressponbible company.

Their servers are down and all of my data have been lost and the software itself is down for more than 11 days now with no clear timeframe on when this is going to be fixed.

They never give clear timeframes nor solutions, they just keep saying, we truly understand how this is critical for your business.

I am sure I am not the only one affected.
Beware from these scammers, if you choose them because they are cheaper, you are making the wrong decision, because you will end up paying a lot of money and time to restore the data that they lost for you.

Cheater company, truly never buy the subscription from them.

My account has been not in use since almost last 12 months, in spite of repeated communication with their support team, they are not deactivating it.

They ask me to do it, but I forgot my domain. I tried to recover it and never receive the email from their system.

I have almost paid 1900 INR since 12+ months. No resolution of the matter.

Finally I am trying to solve the matter by deactivating my card to avoid getting charged from them.

They are pathetic company and truly cheater in the day-light.

I spent a lot of time setting up freshsales and freshdesk to test its viability for our company. Then I tried to import data, hit a bug on their end and reported it to support. They apologised and said its at their technical support team, but I never received an update or any further communication. I followed up every day and received the same response: "It is at the technical team, they will be in contact". Never received any feedback or help, my trial ran out, and in hindsight I am glad this happened, because it shows how they operate. be careful when choosing Freshworks.

Freshworks isn’t a bad CRM system, but its login procedure and mobile application suck. I do not recommend using them.

We started evaluating Freshsales CRM and the experience has been concerning from the very beginning.

Our first Account Executive stopped responding entirely. After I created another account, we were assigned a new AE. I booked a 30-minute call via their Calendly, but the meeting was rescheduled about 30 minutes before the start time, without notice and without addressing my earlier email requesting an earlier discussion (we were in late-stage decision-making).

I then tried joining at the rescheduled time and the AE wasn’t on the line. I also attempted the original link/time earlier that morning and they were not available then either.

If this is the level of responsiveness during the evaluation stage, it doesn’t inspire confidence in what support would look like as a paying customer. Based on repeated no-shows and lack of communication, we decided to end our evaluation.

Onboarding was terrible. Left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. I'm still waiting from a full refund from April 2025.

I am very disappointed that you have not read these reviews before now.
I said yes to your service packages because they promised me a whole lot of things.
And then it turns out that it doesn’t work.

Your sales team sent me a lot of material about what your fancy chat could do and how easy it was to manage with automatic intelligence – that customers could automatically get information about their orders and tracking, and that it would go straight into the chat.

But everything she sent me was not true.
I spent an entire day with two developers trying to make it work.
We wrote to your support, just like she told us to.
They didn’t respond with anything useful.
They just sent me some links to their FAQ.

And what did we find out?
We found out that the integration cannot be done.
When I finally got hold of one of your support agents, I was told that this is not something you can do.
It is not integrated in your system.
It is something I have to build myself.

So what you are doing is selling me a car, promising me a fast, fancy Ferrari.
But when I have paid, you just send me some keys – and then I have to build the car myself.
Because you can’t do anything.

Your salespeople lie.
And they prefer to call you rather than write.
Because when it’s written, they are accountable for what they said.
But now I have everything in writing – because I refuse to talk to them when they just speak that rice-and-curry Indian-English that no one can understand unless they are Indian themselves.
It’s like listening to a bad stand-up show.

I would not recommend anyone to use this system.
It has cost me hours.
It has cost me money for developers.
And in the end, it’s just like opening up, pulling your pants down – and taking a big one.

Support team have been great in sharing best practices on how to use Freshsales effectively for our goals. Special thanks to Kavvya and Saman for helping us recently.

Garbage software. Over complicated, buggy beyond all reason, and they randomly change how the entire application works without warning.

When you finally get tired of the trash software and try to cancel, you are in for a fight. They will not let you cancel.

This CRM on the face of it seemed ok. Until I put a couple of deals through and my dashboard did not show them. Turns out there is a 30 sync delay as standard so you do not get a live snapshot of the business. Reported to support who confirmed this was the case. What a waste of time and have already moved CRM.

I received an unsolicited email at 14.07 today to my personal account instructing me to "verify your identity". The reply sent to Unsubscribe bounced back and the online communication template will not send a message without clicking the box to opt in to receive marketing material.

This is a SCAM to solicit personal financial and contact information.

A fraud company, stay away.
They won't cancel your subscription even if you request account cancellation and it will keep charging you every month and no one responds. They will tell you they have to get approval and the process is long. Approval to cancel your subscription!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they will keep you waiting for months to keep charging you every month. They are literally thieves. The platform itself has many bugs and it can't do the simplest features like push notification on your mobile when someone contact you.
